Locations will feature full menu including artisan breads, sandwiches, salads and soups.

June 10—Dining services at Pennsylvania State University, in University Park, has entered into a new partnership with international brand Au Bon Pain Café Bakery. Au Bon Pain will operate three separate locations on Penn State’s University Park campus.

Renovations at the three locations are set to begin in June with opening day planned for the end of August. Each location will offer the full Au Bon Pain menu, including authentic artisan breads, made-to-order sandwiches, soups, salads, entrées and fresh baked goods. Penn State’s campus and commuter meal plans, and Lion Cash+ will be accepted, and all prices will be in line with other on-campus dining options.

It was a decision that brought the duo recognition at Monday night’s MenuDirections 2015 awards ceremony in Memphis, Tenn., which is part of FoodService Director magazine’s annual conference geared towards foodservice operators and suppliers.
